Journal ArticleDOI

The K+ channel opener diazoxide enhances glutamatergic currents and reduces GABAergic currents in hippocampal neurons.

TL;DR: It is concluded that, in the hippocampus, diazoxide enhances the excitatory glutamatergic currents and reduces the GABAergic inhibition, thus generating paroxystic activities and it is suggested that these effects are mediated by second messenger cascades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nature and nurture in brain development

TL;DR: This meeting provided stipends to enable participation of young scientists from less developed countries and is a major aspect of these meetings that the organisers hope to maintain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exclusively inhibitory action of iontophoretic acetylcholine on single neurones of feline thalamus.

TL;DR: The nucleus reticularis of the cat thalamus may well prove to be an appropriate area in which to study the depressant action of A Ch on central mammalian neurones since almost every cell encountered proved to be inhibited by a short, low amplitude pulse of ACh.
Journal ArticleDOI

GABA regulates stem cell proliferation before nervous system formation.

TL;DR: It is shown that autocrine/paracrine γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) signalling by means of GABAA receptors negatively controls ES cell and peripheral neural crest stem (NCS) cell proliferation, preimplantation embryonic growth and proliferation in the boundary-cap stemcell niche, resulting in an attenuation of neuronal progenies from this stem cell niche.
